Rant: New Coke Bottle Caps

[TimeForGuinness]

Why are you opening a Coke, and not a Guinness?????

Unfortunately, they don't let me drink at work...sad, I know

Just another case of the Man keeping us down.

I bet that since the new cap has fewer ridges than the old style there's a miniscule amount of plastic is saved per cap. Multiplied by the millions sold, it probably amounts to a large savings.

all they'd have to do is give the mold for the cap a rough texture so that there's a much higher coefficient of friction on the cap surface. I think they were thinking that the fewer ridges would result in fingers being able to fit in between the ridges so that it's like a lever, when really all they did was make the surface smooth. The power of opening comes from friction, not forceXdistance

unfortunately my apartment complex and all of SLU is coke only, so if I ever have loose change and am craving a soda I'm pretty limited

Just wondering...TFG, do you need me to come to your office this morning and open your soda for you? We have to take care of the mods right? I'm a good citizen always willing to go the extra mile.
